NATIONAL FOREWORD
The adoption of the ISO Standard as a Malaysian Standard was recommended by the
Technical Committee on Herbs under the authority of the Industry Standards Committee on
Food and Food Products.
This Malaysian Standard is identical with ISO 3215:1998, Oil of nutmeg, Indonesian type
(Myristica fragrans Houtt.), published by the International Organization for Standardization
(ISO). However, for the purposes of this Malaysian Standard, the following apply:
a) in the source text, "this International Standard" should read "this Malaysian Standard";
b) the comma which is used as a decimal sign (if any), to read as a point; and

NOTE. IDT on the front cover indicates an identical standard i.e. a standard where the technical content, structure,
wording (or is an identical translation) of a Malaysian Standard is exactly the same as in an International Standard or
is identical in technical content and structure although it may contain the minimal editorial changes specified in clause

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
International Standard ISO 3215 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 54, Essential oils.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 3215:1974), which has been technically revised.
